Time 50m

Yield 2 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 9

10 dried New Mexico chiles (2 ounces), stems removed
8 dried guajillo chiles (1 1/2 ounces), stems removed
1/2 teaspoon whole coriander seeds
1/2 teaspoon whole cumin seeds
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 tablespoon kosher salt
6 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
Juice of 1 lemon (about 2 tablespoons)
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • If you want spicy harissa, include the chiles' seeds; if not, slit them open to remove and discard the seeds. Tear the chiles into large pieces and place them in a medium bowl. Carefully pour 4 cups boiling water over chiles and set aside until softened, about 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, place the coriander and cumin seeds in a small skillet and cook over medium heat, swirling the pan often, until the spices are fragrant and lightly toasted, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer the spices into a blender, add the oil, salt, garlic and lemon juice, and puree until smooth. Drain the chiles, reserving 1 cup of the soaking liquid (discard remaining liquid). Add the chiles and reserved liquid to the blender and puree on high until very smooth, about 2 minutes. Season the harissa with pepper and transfer to an airtight container. Refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.

I was pleasantly surprised by how easy this harissa was to make. I thought it would be a lot more complicated, but it came together in just a few minutes. The flavor is incredible - it's smoky, spicy, and has a hint of sweetness. I can't wait to use

This harissa is the perfect addition to any dish that needs a little bit of heat and spice. It's not too spicy, so it's great for people who don't like things too hot. I love using it in tacos, burritos, and even just as a condiment on sandwiches.
